Thank you, Mr. Chair.
According to what the Liberals are saying, they agree that there have been some extremely serious breaches in the management of Sustainable Development Technology Canada by its chair and the members of its board of directors. They recognize that. The Bloc Québécois also recognizes that these are extremely serious ethical breaches. In fact, the Ethics Commissioner tabled his report, which is very clear on the matter. The Auditor General did the same thing in June.
Now we find ourselves in a dilemma as we are about to vote on a subamendment on which we do not agree at all, because Ms. Damoff proposed that we reduce this to a two-hour meeting with the Ethics Commissioner and the former chair of the fund, at one hour per witness. Mr. Villemure, from the Bloc Québécois, is proposing that we continue our vacation, no problem. We're suggesting two two-hour meetings, for a total of four hours.
I don't think it's too much to ask all parliamentarians to do this before the end of August, to shed light on the extraordinarily significant breaches of this fund. That's been proven and everyone agrees on that. No one is questioning that. It's therefore important that we vote as quickly as possible so that we can hold these meetings as soon as possible and get to the bottom of how this fund was managed, and how funds were wasted and provided to businesses with which members of the board of directors, including the chair, were associated.
I therefore call the question, Mr. Chair.
